Nose had matchstick and vanilla, along with mineral, citrus and flower. Mouthfeel felt hollow in the middle. Palate had lanolin, more lemon, green apple, vanilla and mineral. Finish was light and fairly short.
Total Score: 35 out of 11-55 range (lower is better) My Ranking: 4th of 5 Group Ranking: 4th of 5

Wow, super juice here with great tension and mouth-watering acidity. Quite intense and extracted on the finish which is very mineral-driven with notes of gunflint and lemon oil yet the wine retains elegance and finesse. A producer to watch.

Well colored, more golden than yellow. Some matchstick and vanilla on the nose, along with mineral, citrus and flower. A bit fullish on the palate, with a bit of the lanolin mentioned by another taster. Also, more lemon, green apple, vanilla and mineral. In my recent survey of 3 bottles from the 3 great Chardonnay communes of the Cotes d'Or, I would rank this in the middle and being Very Good to Excellent.

Drank this about 3 weeks ago and it was singing. Paired with steamed dungeness crab.

Hints of lemon and lanolin. Mouthwatering acidity and some nutty notes with good minerality.
